Summary:This work provides a set of reflections on the link between Ethics and the Economy. The purpose of these lines is only to provide some reflections that can generate some "working hypothesis", which in turn play as triggers of the thought.In the first section, a very brief history of Ethics as a discipline is presented. The next three sections review the connection between Economics and Ethics, from the old closeness to the current divorce. In the fifth section, we work on a very special aspect of the moral issue: the debate on corruption and its economic effects. The last section provides some final words.
